PDF Files are the standard when it comes to sharing documents online. Many times, we receive forms or documents where we need to add data or sign them but are in PDF format.

Thus, In this post we compare 5 Best Free PDF Editors for iPhone and iPad , which will let you edit PDF on your iPhones & iPads (iOS Devices).

2. ZoomNotes Lite

“Looks can be deceiving” that’s what ZoomNotes lite proves with its feature rich app. The first look of the app might suggest you that its being shabbily designed, but in the end it is one of the best and easiest to use PDF Editors for iPhone & iPad. Infact, using it on iPad is very quick and smoother than Xodo PDF.

To edit PDF inside ZoomNotes lite all you need to do is tap “A” icon from left hand side pane, then simply tap on blank area to start adding text, signature, annotations etc.

Besides, these it also has a unique easy to use formatting bar which we liked a lot as it enables to change the font face, bold,italic or underline any text you are trying to add.

Also, the basic icons help to reduce the load making it easier to use on all iPhone models such as iPhone 5, 5S, SE, 6 , iPhone 6 Plus, 6S, 7 , 8 or even iPhone X.

4. Foxit MobilePDF

Foxit PDF for iPhone & iPad

Foxit PDF for iOS is a bit disappointing especially comparing it to its Mac or Windows version. Though, Foxit PDF for iOS lets you easily edit the PDF and the User Interface looks attractive, we found the icon based UI a bit confusing.

But, besides that it has some features which are really useful –

Ability to Open and convert PDFs to Office formats (ppt, docx, xls) and vice versa

Open PDF files and other documents directly from Zip files, or export them to zip files

5. MarkUp – Annotation Expert

Markup Annotation Expert for PDF – iOS

Markup as the name suggests is great for adding annotations, comments, notes to the PDFs . But full fledged PDF editing is where MarkUp lacks. You can add text to PDF from Markup but you cannot remove existing data from PDF, which other apps are capable e.g Xodo.

Anyways, incase you are looking for quick annotations, and easy to use light weight app- Markup is just that. However, for full PDF editing experience and removing existing text & image from PDFs we recommend Xodo.

Thus, these are currently the Best PDF Editors for iPad and iPhones. These work on almost all older and newer models as well as iOS versions 8 and later. Incase, if you face any issues or have queries feel free to let us know in the comments section below.
